what strength is best to take ? and are they ok to take with my medication my vaginal thurst tablet ?

[Desperateforrelief]

Yes safe with thrush medication. You are supposed to 2000mg/day. However, my doctor gave me permission to double it.

[Desperateforrelief in reply to Mrshappyme]

I hope you feel better too. This UTI/thrush thing is beyond annoying.

Can you tell me is it the antibiotics that are caursing the thrush or the pressry ring as I feel sore iv got one more tablet to put in if I think it aren't gone . Uti clear xx

[Desperateforrelief in reply to Mrspoorly]

Antibiotics. I don't have a pessary. It is well known that antibiotics cause yeast infections. This is why probiotics help as well. They help balance the natural flora that antibiotics kill off.

I'm having louse bowel movements and sometimes I cant go at all could this be due to my prolase bladder

Morning I forgot to ask you how long can you take d manose for .? Everyday till your utis gone or carry on taking it and if so how long is that for ? Thanks

I take it every day to prevent UTI's from coming. When they still do, not as frequently, I take extra. My friends have great results and have no UTI'S with it. But I think my urethra is so damaged and so low that it is virtually impossible to keep infection away 100%. Plus I have to self cath occasionally, depends on position of bladder, I think.

thankyou mine low i got some d manose and iv been on it a week and half now. i got to find out how i can make my bowels a little better as their too louse i think the perssery ring is pushed to far back and its blocking my bowels . i have to go more often in the morning takes two hours for me to feel comfy and be able to do a few house hold jobs

I know this problem well. UGH!!! Mine are not loose, but I'm on pain meds that constipate. I take miralax, which helps some. I've lost the ability to push, prolapse and nerve damage. My bladder has loss the ability to squeeze. However, my urethra is miraculously working again after radiofrequency ablation to the pudendal nerve. I can open and close it. Problem comes in if bowels not empty or bladder in bad position. Still takes forever to go. Many times, if I double miralax, I will go 8 times a day, at a min of 25 mins each. So controlled by my functions. I wish I knew the best thing to do. Doctors don't want to touch me. Mesh is definitely not an option for me, it ruined my life. I hope they figure out what is going on. I don't see how a prolapse could cause them to be loose, unless there is a partial blockage. If your pessary isn't comfortable, have them change it. Prolapse sucks. No better word to describe it.
